Bears Twitter mailbag: What happens at RB if David Montgomery gets hurt?

While the Bears conducting their offseason business online, the Sun-Times’ Patrick Finley — who can be found @patrickfinley — answers your Bears questions from Twitter:

They say they’re set, but they’re in an interesting spot. The No. 2 running back on the Bears depth chart is really a receiver. And the man I’d pick to start if Montgomery ever got hurt is a receiver who might really be a running back.

Confused?

I don’t think Tarik Cohen could — or should — be the every-down back in case of a Montgomery injury. He’s too valuable as the team’s pass-catching “Joker” back.
